mm/migrate: Trylock device page in do_swap_page
Avoid multiple CPU page faults to the same device page racing by trying to lock the page in do_swap_page before taking an extra reference to the page. This prevents scenarios where multiple CPU page faults each take an extra reference to a device page, which could abort migration in folio_migrate_mapping. With the device page being locked in do_swap_page, the migrate_vma_* functions need to be updated to avoid locking the fault_page argument. Prior to this change, a livelock scenario could occur in Xe's (Intel GPU DRM driver) SVM implementation if enough threads faulted the same device page. v3: - Put page after unlocking page (Alistair) - Warn on spliting a TPH which is fault page (Alistair) - Warn on dst page == fault page (Alistair) v6: - Add more verbose comment around THP (Alistair) v7: - Fix migrate_device_finalize alignment (Checkpatch) Cc: Alistair Popple <apopple@nvidia.com> Cc: Philip Yang <Philip.Yang@amd.com> Cc: Felix Kuehling <felix.kuehling@amd.com> Cc: Christian König <christian.koenig@amd.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Suggested-by: Simona Vetter <simona.vetter@ffwll.ch> Signed-off-by: Matthew Brost <matthew.brost@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Alistair Popple <apopple@nvidia.com> Tested-by: Alistair Popple <apopple@nvidia.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20250306012657.3505757-4-matthew.brost@intel.com |

mm: fix finish_fault() handling for large folios
When handling faults for anon shmem finish_fault() will attempt to install
ptes for the entire folio. Unfortunately if it encounters a single
non-pte_none entry in that range it will bail, even if the pte that
triggered the fault is still pte_none. When this situation happens the
fault will be retried endlessly never making forward progress.
This patch fixes this behavior and if it detects that a pte in the range
is not pte_none it will fall back to setting a single pte.

mm: don't skip arch_sync_kernel_mappings() in error paths
Fix callers that previously skipped calling arch_sync_kernel_mappings() if an error occurred during a pgtable update. The call is still required to sync any pgtable updates that may have occurred prior to hitting the error condition. These are theoretical bugs discovered during code review.

mm: Provide address mask in struct follow_pfnmap_args
follow_pfnmap_start() walks the page table for a given address and fills out the struct follow_pfnmap_args in pfnmap_args_setup(). The address mask of the page table level is already provided to this latter function for calculating the pfn. This address mask can also be useful for the caller to determine the extent of the contiguous mapping. For example, vfio-pci now supports huge_fault for pfnmaps and is able to insert pud and pmd mappings. When we DMA map these pfnmaps, ex. PCI MMIO BARs, we iterate follow_pfnmap_start() to get each pfn to test for a contiguous pfn range. Providing the mapping address mask allows us to skip the extent of the mapping level. Assuming a 1GB pud level and 4KB page size, iterations are reduced by a factor of 256K. In wall clock time, mapping a 32GB PCI BAR is reduced from ~1s to <1ms.

mm: Add copy_remote_vm_str() for readng C strings from remote VM
Similar to `access_process_vm()` but specific to strings. Also chunks reads by page and utilizes `strscpy()` for handling null termination. The primary motivation for this change is to copy strings from a non-current task/process in BPF. There is already a helper `bpf_copy_from_user_task()`, which uses `access_process_vm()` but one to handle strings would be very helpful.

mm: pgtable: fix incorrect reclaim of non-empty PTE pages
In zap_pte_range(), if the pte lock was released midway, the pte entries
may be refilled with physical pages by another thread, which may cause a
non-empty PTE page to be reclaimed and eventually cause the system to
crash.
To fix it, fall back to the slow path in this case to recheck if all pte
entries are still none.

mm: pgtable: introduce pagetable_dtor()
The pagetable_p*_dtor() are exactly the same except for the handling of ptlock. If we make ptlock_free() handle the case where ptdesc->ptl is NULL and remove VM_BUG_ON_PAGE() from pmd_ptlock_free(), we can unify pagetable_p*_dtor() into one function. Let's introduce pagetable_dtor() to do this. Later, pagetable_dtor() will be moved to tlb_remove_ptdesc(), so that ptlock and page table pages can be freed together (regardless of whether RCU is used). This prevents the use-after-free problem where the ptlock is freed immediately but the page table pages is freed later via RCU.

mm: remove unnecessary calls to lru_add_drain
There seem to be several categories of calls to lru_add_drain and lru_add_drain_all. The first are code paths that recently allocated, swapped in, or otherwise processed a batch of pages, and want them all on the LRU. These drain pages that were recently allocated, probably on the local CPU. A second category are code paths that are actively trying to reclaim, migrate, or offline memory. These often use lru_add_drain_all, to drain the caches on all CPUs. However, there also seem to be some other callers where we aren't really doing either. They are calling lru_add_drain(), despite operating on pages that may have been allocated long ago, and quite possibly on different CPUs. Those calls are not likely to be effective at anything but creating lock contention on the LRU locks. Remove the lru_add_drain calls in the latter category. For detailed reasoning, see [1] and [2].

The event is synchronous so if there is listener for this event, the kernel waits for reply. On success the execution continues as usual, on failure we propagate the error to userspace. This allows userspace to fill in file content on demand from slow storage. The context in which the events are generated has been picked so that we don't hold any locks and thus there's no risk of a deadlock for the userspace handler. The new pre-content event is available only for users with global CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability (similarly to other parts of fanotify functionality) and it is an administrator responsibility to make sure the userspace event handler doesn't do stupid stuff that can DoS the system. Based on your feedback from the last submission, fsnotify code has been improved and now file->f_mode encodes whether pre-content event needs to be generated for the file so the fast path when nobody wants pre-content event for the file just grows the additional file->f_mode check. As a bonus this also removes the checks whether the old FS_ACCESS event needs to be generated from the fast path. Also the place where the event is generated during page fault has been moved so now filemap_fault() generates the event if and only if there is no uptodate folio in the page cache.

mm: add per-order mTHP swap-in fallback/fallback_charge counters

mm: pgtable: reclaim empty PTE page in madvise(MADV_DONTNEED)
Now in order to pursue high performance, applications mostly use some high-performance user-mode memory allocators, such as jemalloc or tcmalloc. These memory allocators use madvise(MADV_DONTNEED or MADV_FREE) to release physical memory, but neither MADV_DONTNEED nor MADV_FREE will release page table memory, which may cause huge page table memory usage. The following are a memory usage snapshot of one process which actually happened on our server: VIRT: 55t RES: 590g VmPTE: 110g In this case, most of the page table entries are empty. For such a PTE page where all entries are empty, we can actually free it back to the system for others to use. As a first step, this commit aims to synchronously free the empty PTE pages in madvise(MADV_DONTNEED) case. We will detect and free empty PTE pages in zap_pte_range(), and will add zap_details.reclaim_pt to exclude cases other than madvise(MADV_DONTNEED). Once an empty PTE is detected, we first try to hold the pmd lock within the pte lock. If successful, we clear the pmd entry directly (fast path). Otherwise, we wait until the pte lock is released, then re-hold the pmd and pte locks and loop PTRS_PER_PTE times to check pte_none() to re-detect whether the PTE page is empty and free it (slow path). For other cases such as madvise(MADV_FREE), consider scanning and freeing empty PTE pages asynchronously in the future. The following code snippet can show the effect of optimization: mmap 50G while (1) { for (; i < 1024 * 25; i++) { touch 2M memory madvise MADV_DONTNEED 2M } } As we can see, the memory usage of VmPTE is reduced: before after VIRT 50.0 GB 50.0 GB RES 3.1 MB 3.1 MB VmPTE 102640 KB 240 KB [zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com: fix uninitialized symbol 'ptl'] Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20241206112348.51570-1-zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/224e6a4e-43b5-4080-bdd8-b0a6fb2f0853@stanley.mountain/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/92aba2b319a734913f18ba41e7d86a265f0b84e2.1733305182.git.zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com Signed-off-by: Qi Zheng <zhengqi.arch@bytedance.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Cc: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com> Cc: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Cc: Lorenzo Stoakes <lorenzo.stoakes@oracle.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Mel Gorman <mgorman@suse.de> Cc: Muchun Song <muchun.song@linux.dev> Cc: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org> Cc: Zach O'Keefe <zokeefe@google.com> Cc: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

mm: use clear_user_(high)page() for arch with special user folio handling
Some architectures have special handling after clearing user folios:
architectures, which set cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() to true, require
flushing dcache; arc, which sets cpu_icache_is_aliasing() to true, changes
folio->flags to make icache coherent to dcache. So __GFP_ZERO using only
clear_page() is not enough to zero user folios and clear_user_(high)page()
must be used. Otherwise, user data will be corrupted.
Fix it by always clearing user folios with clear_user_(high)page() when
cpu_dcache_is_aliasing() is true or cpu_icache_is_aliasing() is true.
Rename alloc_zeroed() to user_alloc_needs_zeroing() and invert the logic
to clarify its intend.

mm: add PTE_MARKER_GUARD PTE marker
Add a new PTE marker that results in any access causing the accessing process to segfault. This is preferable to PTE_MARKER_POISONED, which results in the same handling as hardware poisoned memory, and is thus undesirable for cases where we simply wish to 'soft' poison a range. This is in preparation for implementing the ability to specify guard pages at the page table level, i.e. ranges that, when accessed, should cause process termination. Additionally, rename zap_drop_file_uffd_wp() to zap_drop_markers() - the function checks the ZAP_FLAG_DROP_MARKER flag so naming it for this single purpose was simply incorrect. We then reuse the same logic to determine whether a zap should clear a guard entry - this should only be performed on teardown and never on MADV_DONTNEED or MADV_FREE. We additionally add a WARN_ON_ONCE() in hugetlb logic should a guard marker be encountered there, as we explicitly do not support this operation and this should not occur.

mm: fix follow_pfnmap API lockdep assert
The lockdep asserts for the new follow_pfnmap() API "knows" that a
pfnmap always has a vma->vm_file, since that's the only way to create
such a mapping.
And that's actually true for all the normal cases. But not for the mmap
failure case, where the incomplete mapping is torn down and we have
cleared vma->vm_file because the failure occured before the file was
linked to the vma.
So this codepath does actually need to check for vm_file being NULL.

mm: don't install PMD mappings when THPs are disabled by the hw/process/vma
We (or rather, readahead logic :) ) might be allocating a THP in the
pagecache and then try mapping it into a process that explicitly disabled
THP: we might end up installing PMD mappings.
This is a problem for s390x KVM, which explicitly remaps all PMD-mapped
THPs to be PTE-mapped in s390_enable_sie()->thp_split_mm(), before
starting the VM.
For example, starting a VM backed on a file system with large folios
supported makes the VM crash when the VM tries accessing such a mapping
using KVM.
Is it also a problem when the HW disabled THP using
TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_UNSUPPORTED? At least on x86 this would be the case
without X86_FEATURE_PSE.
In the future, we might be able to do better on s390x and only disallow
PMD mappings -- what s390x and likely TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE_UNSUPPORTED
really wants. For now, fix it by essentially performing the same check as
would be done in __thp_vma_allowable_orders() or in shmem code, where this
works as expected, and disallow PMD mappings, making us fallback to PTE
mappings.

mm: support large folios swap-in for sync io devices
Currently, we have mTHP features, but unfortunately, without support for
large folio swap-ins, once these large folios are swapped out, they are
lost because mTHP swap is a one-way process. The lack of mTHP swap-in
functionality prevents mTHP from being used on devices like Android that
heavily rely on swap.
This patch introduces mTHP swap-in support. It starts from sync devices
such as zRAM. This is probably the simplest and most common use case,
benefiting billions of Android phones and similar devices with minimal
implementation cost. In this straightforward scenario, large folios are
always exclusive, eliminating the need to handle complex rmap and
swapcache issues.
It offers several benefits:
1. Enables bidirectional mTHP swapping, allowing retrieval of mTHP after
swap-out and swap-in. Large folios in the buddy system are also
preserved as much as possible, rather than being fragmented due
to swap-in.
2. Eliminates fragmentation in swap slots and supports successful
THP_SWPOUT.

3. With both mTHP swap-out and swap-in supported, we offer the option to enable
zsmalloc compression/decompression with larger granularity[2]. The upcoming
optimization in zsmalloc will significantly increase swap speed and improve
compression efficiency. Tested by running 100 iterations of swapping 100MiB
of anon memory, the swap speed improved dramatically:
time consumption of swapin(ms) time consumption of swapout(ms)
lz4 4k 45274 90540
lz4 64k 22942 55667
zstdn 4k 85035 186585
zstdn 64k 46558 118533
The compression ratio also improved, as evaluated with 1 GiB of data:
granularity orig_data_size compr_data_size
4KiB-zstd 1048576000 246876055
64KiB-zstd 1048576000 199763892
Without mTHP swap-in, the potential optimizations in zsmalloc cannot be
realized.
4. Even mTHP swap-in itself can reduce swap-in page faults by a factor
of nr_pages. Swapping in content filled with the same data 0x11, w/o
and w/ the patch for five rounds (Since the content is the same,
decompression will be very fast. This primarily assesses the impact of
reduced page faults):
swp in bandwidth(bytes/ms) w/o w/
round1 624152 1127501
round2 631672 1127501
round3 620459 1139756
round4 606113 1139756
round5 624152

mm: change vmf_anon_prepare() to __vmf_anon_prepare()
Some callers of vmf_anon_prepare() may not want us to release the per-VMA
lock ourselves. Rename vmf_anon_prepare() to __vmf_anon_prepare() and let
the callers drop the lock when desired.
Also, make vmf_anon_prepare() a wrapper that releases the per-VMA lock
itself for any callers that don't care.

mm: avoid leaving partial pfn mappings around in error case
As Jann points out, PFN mappings are special, because unlike normal memory mappings, there is no lifetime information associated with the mapping - it is just a raw mapping of PFNs with no reference counting of a 'struct page'. That's all very much intentional, but it does mean that it's easy to mess up the cleanup in case of errors. Yes, a failed mmap() will always eventually clean up any partial mappings, but without any explicit lifetime in the page table mapping itself, it's very easy to do the error handling in the wrong order. In particular, it's easy to mistakenly free the physical backing store before the page tables are actually cleaned up and (temporarily) have stale dangling PTE entries. To make this situation less error-prone, just make sure that any partial pfn mapping is torn down early, before any other error handling.

mm: cleanup count_mthp_stat() definition
Patch series "Shmem mTHP controls and stats improvements", v3. This is a small series to tidy up the way the shmem controls and stats are exposed. These patches were previously part of the series at [2], but I decided to split them out since they can go in independently. This patch (of 2): Let's move count_mthp_stat() so that it's always defined, even when THP is disabled. Previously uses of the function in files such as shmem.c, which are compiled even when THP is disabled, required ugly THP ifdeferry. With this cleanup, we can remove those ifdefs and the function resolves to a nop when THP is disabled. I shortly plan to call count_mthp_stat() from more THP-invariant source files.

mm,memcg: provide per-cgroup counters for NUMA balancing operations
The ability to observe the demotion and promotion decisions made by the kernel on a per-cgroup basis is important for monitoring and tuning containerized workloads on machines equipped with tiered memory. Different containers in the system may experience drastically different memory tiering actions that cannot be distinguished from the global counters alone. For example, a container running a workload that has a much hotter memory accesses will likely see more promotions and fewer demotions, potentially depriving a colocated container of top tier memory to such an extent that its performance degrades unacceptably. For another example, some containers may exhibit longer periods between data reuse, causing much more numa_hint_faults than numa_pages_migrated. In this case, tuning hot_threshold_ms may be appropriate, but the signal can easily be lost if only global counters are available. In the long term, we hope to introduce per-cgroup control of promotion and demotion actions to implement memory placement policies in tiering. This patch set adds seven counters to memory.stat in a cgroup: numa_pages_migrated, numa_pte_updates, numa_hint_faults, pgdemote_kswapd, pgdemote_khugepaged, pgdemote_direct and pgpromote_success. pgdemote_* and pgpromote_success are also available in memory.numa_stat. count_memcg_events_mm() is added to count multiple event occurrences at once, and get_mem_cgroup_from_folio() is added because we need to get a reference to the memcg of a folio before it's migrated to track numa_pages_migrated. The accounting of PGDEMOTE_* is moved to shrink_inactive_list() before being changed to per-cgroup.

mm: fix (harmless) type confusion in lock_vma_under_rcu()
There is a (harmless) type confusion in lock_vma_under_rcu(): After
vma_start_read(), we have taken the VMA lock but don't know yet whether
the VMA has already been detached and scheduled for RCU freeing. At this
point, ->vm_start and ->vm_end are accessed.
vm_area_struct contains a union such that ->vm_rcu uses the same memory as
->vm_start and ->vm_end; so accessing ->vm_start and ->vm_end of a
detached VMA is illegal and leads to type confusion between union members.
Fix it by reordering the vma->detached check above the address checks, and
document the rules for RCU readers accessing VMAs.
This will probably change the number of observed VMA_LOCK_MISS events
(since previously, trying to access a detached VMA whose ->vm_rcu has been
scheduled would bail out when checking the fault address against the
rcu_head members reinterpreted as VMA bounds).

mm: provide vm_normal_(page|folio)_pmd() with CONFIG_PGTABLE_HAS_HUGE_LEAVES
Patch series "mm: replace follow_page() by folio_walk". Looking into a way of moving the last folio_likely_mapped_shared() call in add_folio_for_migration() under the PTL, I found myself removing follow_page(). This paves the way for cleaning up all the FOLL_, follow_* terminology to just be called "GUP" nowadays. The new page table walker will lookup a mapped folio and return to the caller with the PTL held, such that the folio cannot get unmapped concurrently. Callers can then conditionally decide whether they really want to take a short-term folio reference or whether the can simply unlock the PTL and be done with it. folio_walk is similar to page_vma_mapped_walk(), except that we don't know the folio we want to walk to and that we are only walking to exactly one PTE/PMD/PUD. folio_walk provides access to the pte/pmd/pud (and the referenced folio page because things like KSM need that), however, as part of this series no page table modifications are performed by users. We might be able to convert some other walk_page_range() users that really only walk to one address, such as DAMON with damon_mkold_ops/damon_young_ops. It might make sense to extend folio_walk in the future to optionally fault in a folio (if applicable), such that we can replace some get_user_pages() users that really only want to lookup a single page/folio under PTL without unconditionally grabbing a folio reference. I have plans to extend the approach to a range walker that will try batching various page table entries (not just folio pages) to be a better replace for walk_page_range() -- and users will be able to opt in which type of page table entries they want to process -- but that will require more work and more thoughts. KSM seems to work just fine (ksm_functional_tests selftests) and move_pages seems to work (migration selftest). I tested the leaf implementation excessively using various hugetlb sizes (64K, 2M, 32M, 1G) on arm64 using move_pages and did some more testing on x86-64. Cross compiled on a bunch of architectures. This patch (of 11): We want to make use of vm_normal_page_pmd() in generic page table walking code where we might walk hugetlb folios that are mapped by PMDs even without CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE. So let's expose vm_normal_page_pmd() + vm_normal_folio_pmd() with CONFIG_PGTABLE_HAS_HUGE_LEAVES.

mm: turn USE_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS / USE_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS into Kconfig options
Patch series "mm: split PTE/PMD PT table Kconfig cleanups+clarifications". This series is a follow up to the fixes: "[PATCH v1 0/2] mm/hugetlb: fix hugetlb vs. core-mm PT locking" When working on the fixes, I wondered why 8xx is fine (-> never uses split PT locks) and how PT locking even works properly with PMD page table sharing (-> always requires split PMD PT locks). Let's improve the split PT lock detection, make hugetlb properly depend on it and make 8xx bail out if it would ever get enabled by accident. As an alternative to patch #3 we could extend the Kconfig SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS option from patch #2 -- but enforcing it closer to the code that actually implements it feels a bit nicer for documentation purposes, and there is no need to actually disable it because it should always be disabled (!SMP). Did a bunch of cross-compilations to make sure that split PTE/PMD PT locks are still getting used where we would expect them.

mm: add MAP_DROPPABLE for designating always lazily freeable mappings
The vDSO getrandom() implementation works with a buffer allocated with a new system call that has certain requirements: - It shouldn't be written to core dumps. * Easy: VM_DONTDUMP. - It should be zeroed on fork. * Easy: VM_WIPEONFORK. - It shouldn't be written to swap. * Uh-oh: mlock is rlimited. * Uh-oh: mlock isn't inherited by forks. - It shouldn't reserve actual memory, but it also shouldn't crash when page faulting in memory if none is available * Uh-oh: VM_NORESERVE means segfaults. It turns out that the vDSO getrandom() function has three really nice characteristics that we can exploit to solve this problem: 1) Due to being wiped during fork(), the vDSO code is already robust to having the contents of the pages it reads zeroed out midway through the function's execution. 2) In the absolute worst case of whatever contingency we're coding for, we have the option to fallback to the getrandom() syscall, and everything is fine. 3) The buffers the function uses are only ever useful for a maximum of 60 seconds -- a sort of cache, rather than a long term allocation. These characteristics mean that we can introduce VM_DROPPABLE, which has the following semantics: a) It never is written out to swap. b) Under memory pressure, mm can just drop the pages (so that they're zero when read back again). c) It is inherited by fork. d) It doesn't count against the mlock budget, since nothing is locked. e) If there's not enough memory to service a page fault, it's not fatal, and no signal is sent. This way, allocations used by vDSO getrandom() can use: VM_DROPPABLE | VM_DONTDUMP | VM_WIPEONFORK | VM_NORESERVE And there will be no problem with OOMing, crashing on overcommitment, using memory when not in use, not wiping on fork(), coredumps, or writing out to swap. In order to let vDSO getrandom() use this, expose these via mmap(2) as MAP_DROPPABLE. Note that this involves removing the MADV_FREE special case from sort_folio(), which according to Yu Zhao is unnecessary and will simply result in an extra call to shrink_folio_list() in the worst case. The chunk removed reenables the swapbacked flag, which we don't want for VM_DROPPABLE, and we can't conditionalize it here because there isn't a vma reference available. Finally, the provided self test ensures that this is working as desired. Cc: linux-mm@kvack.org Acked-by: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com> |

mm: move memory_failure_queue() into copy_mc_[user]_highpage()
Patch series "mm: migrate: support poison recover from migrate folio", v5. The folio migration is widely used in kernel, memory compaction, memory hotplug, soft offline page, numa balance, memory demote/promotion, etc, but once access a poisoned source folio when migrating, the kernel will panic. There is a mechanism in the kernel to recover from uncorrectable memory errors, ARCH_HAS_COPY_MC(eg, Machine Check Safe Memory Copy on x86), which is already used in NVDIMM or core-mm paths(eg, CoW, khugepaged, coredump, ksm copy), see copy_mc_to_{user,kernel}, copy_mc_{user_}highpage callers. This series of patches provide the recovery mechanism from folio copy for the widely used folio migration. Please note, because folio migration is no guarantee of success, so we could chose to make folio migration tolerant of memory failures, adding folio_mc_copy() which is a #MC versions of folio_copy(), once accessing a poisoned source folio, we could return error and make the folio migration fail, and this could avoid the similar panic shown below.

mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault folio isolation + checks under PTL
Currently we always take a folio reference even if migration will not even be tried or isolation failed, requiring us to grab+drop an additional reference. Further, we end up calling folio_likely_mapped_shared() while the folio might have already been unmapped, because after we dropped the PTL, that can easily happen. We want to stop touching mapcounts and friends from such context, and only call folio_likely_mapped_shared() while the folio is still mapped: mapcount information is pretty much stale and unreliable otherwise. So let's move checks into numamigrate_isolate_folio(), rename that function to migrate_misplaced_folio_prepare(), and call that function from callsites where we call migrate_misplaced_folio(), but still with the PTL held. We can now stop taking temporary folio references, and really only take a reference if folio isolation succeeded. Doing the folio_likely_mapped_shared() + folio isolation under PT lock is now similar to how we handle MADV_PAGEOUT. While at it, combine the folio_is_file_lru() checks.

mm/migrate: make migrate_misplaced_folio() return 0 on success
Patch series "mm/migrate: move NUMA hinting fault folio isolation + checks under PTL". Let's just return 0 on success, which is less confusing. ... especially because we got it wrong in the migrate.h stub where we have "return -EAGAIN; /* can't migrate now */" instead of "return 0;". Likely this wrong return value doesn't currently matter, but it certainly adds confusion. We'll add migrate_misplaced_folio_prepare() next, where we want to use the same "return 0 on success" approach, so let's just clean this up.

mm: use folio_add_new_anon_rmap() if folio_test_anon(folio)==false
For the !folio_test_anon(folio) case, we can now invoke folio_add_new_anon_rmap() with the rmap flags set to either EXCLUSIVE or non-EXCLUSIVE. This action will suppress the VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO check within __folio_add_anon_rmap() while initiating the process of bringing up mTHP swapin. static __always_inline void __folio_add_anon_rmap(struct folio *folio, struct page *page, int nr_pages, struct vm_area_struct *vma, unsigned long address, rmap_t flags, enum rmap_level level) { ... if (unlikely(!folio_test_anon(folio))) { VM_WARN_ON_FOLIO(folio_test_large(folio) && level != RMAP_LEVEL_PMD, folio); } ... } It also improves the code's readability. Currently, all new anonymous folios calling folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes() are order-0. This ensures that new folios cannot be partially exclusive; they are either entirely exclusive or entirely shared. A useful comment from Hugh's fix: : Commit "mm: use folio_add_new_anon_rmap() if folio_test_anon(folio)== : false" has extended folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to use on non-exclusive : folios, already visible to others in swap cache and on LRU. : : That renders its non-atomic __folio_set_swapbacked() unsafe: it risks : overwriting concurrent atomic operations on folio->flags, losing bits : added or restoring bits cleared. Since it's only used in this risky way : when folio_test_locked and !folio_test_anon, many such races are excluded; : but, for example, isolations by folio_test_clear_lru() are vulnerable, and : setting or clearing active. : : It could just use the atomic folio_set_swapbacked(); but this function : does try to avoid atomics where it can, so use a branch instead: just : avoid setting swapbacked when it is already set, that is good enough. : (Swapbacked is normally stable once set: lazyfree can undo it, but only : later, when found anon in a page table.) : : This fixes a lot of instability under compaction and swapping loads: : assorted "Bad page"s, VM_BUG_ON_FOLIO()s, apparently even page double : frees - though I've not worked out what races could lead to the latter.

mm: extend rmap flags arguments for folio_add_new_anon_rmap
Patch series "mm: clarify folio_add_new_anon_rmap() and __folio_add_anon_rmap()", v2. This patchset is preparatory work for mTHP swapin. folio_add_new_anon_rmap() assumes that new anon rmaps are always exclusive. However, this assumption doesn’t hold true for cases like do_swap_page(), where a new anon might be added to the swapcache and is not necessarily exclusive. The patchset extends the rmap flags to allow folio_add_new_anon_rmap() to handle both exclusive and non-exclusive new anon folios. The do_swap_page() function is updated to use this extended API with rmap flags. Consequently, all new anon folios now consistently use folio_add_new_anon_rmap(). The special case for !folio_test_anon() in __folio_add_anon_rmap() can be safely removed. In conclusion, new anon folios always use folio_add_new_anon_rmap(), regardless of exclusivity. Old anon folios continue to use __folio_add_anon_rmap() via folio_add_anon_rmap_pmd() and folio_add_anon_rmap_ptes(). This patch (of 3): In the case of a swap-in, a new anonymous folio is not necessarily exclusive. This patch updates the rmap flags to allow a new anonymous folio to be treated as either exclusive or non-exclusive. To maintain the existing behavior, we always use EXCLUSIVE as the default setting.

mm: swap: remove 'synchronous' argument to swap_read_folio()
Commit [1] introduced IO polling support duding swapin to reduce swap read latency for block devices that can be polled. However later commit [2] removed polling support. Commit [3] removed the remnants of polling support from read_swap_cache_async() and __read_swap_cache_async(). However, it left behind some remnants in swap_read_folio(), the 'synchronous' argument. swap_read_folio() reads the folio synchronously if synchronous=true or if SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO is set in swap_info_struct. The only caller that passes synchronous=true is in do_swap_page() in the SWP_SYNCHRONOUS_IO case. Hence, the argument is redundant, it is only set to true when the swap read would have been synchronous anyway. Remove it. [1] Commit |

mm: swap: reuse exclusive folio directly instead of wp page faults
After swapping out, we perform a swap-in operation. If we first read and then write, we encounter a major fault in do_swap_page for reading, along with additional minor faults in do_wp_page for writing. However, the latter appears to be unnecessary and inefficient. Instead, we can directly reuse in do_swap_page and completely eliminate the need for do_wp_page. This patch achieves that optimization specifically for exclusive folios. The following microbenchmark demonstrates the significant reduction in minor faults. #define DATA_SIZE (2UL * 1024 * 1024) #define PAGE_SIZE (4UL * 1024) static void *read_write_data(char *addr) { char tmp; for (int i = 0; i < DATA_SIZE; i += PAGE_SIZE) { tmp = *(volatile char *)(addr + i); *(volatile char *)(addr + i) = tmp; } } int main(int argc, char **argv) { struct rusage ru; char *addr = mmap(NULL, DATA_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_PRIVATE, -1, 0); memset(addr, 0x11, DATA_SIZE); do { long old_ru_minflt, old_ru_majflt; long new_ru_minflt, new_ru_majflt; madvise(addr, DATA_SIZE, MADV_PAGEOUT); getrusage(RUSAGE_SELF, &ru); old_ru_minflt = ru.ru_minflt; old_ru_majflt = ru.ru_majflt; read_write_data(addr); getrusage(RUSAGE_SELF, &ru); new_ru_minflt = ru.ru_minflt; new_ru_majflt = ru.ru_majflt; printf("minor faults:%ld major faults:%ld\n", new_ru_minflt - old_ru_minflt, new_ru_majflt - old_ru_majflt); } while(0); return 0; } w/o patch, / # ~/a.out minor faults:512 major faults:512 w/ patch, / # ~/a.out minor faults:0 major faults:512 Minor faults decrease to 0!

It's important to highlight that metadata restoration is solely required by the SPARC platform, which, however, does not enable THP_SWAP. Consequently, in the present kernel configuration, there exists no practical scenario where users necessitate the restoration of nr metadata. Platforms implementing THP_SWAP might invoke this function with nr values exceeding 1, subsequent to do_swap_page() successfully mapping an entire large folio. Nonetheless, their arch_do_swap_page_nr() functions remain empty.

mm: batch unlink_file_vma calls in free_pgd_range
Execs of dynamically linked binaries at 20-ish cores are bottlenecked on the i_mmap_rwsem semaphore, while the biggest singular contributor is free_pgd_range inducing the lock acquire back-to-back for all consecutive mappings of a given file. Tracing the count of said acquires while building the kernel shows: [1, 2) 799579 |@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@| [2, 3) 0 | | [3, 4) 3009 | | [4, 5) 3009 | | [5, 6) 326442 |@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ | So in particular there were 326442 opportunities to coalesce 5 acquires into 1. Doing so increases execs per second by 4% (~50k to ~52k) when running the benchmark linked below. The lock remains the main bottleneck, I have not looked at other spots yet. Bench can be found here: http://apollo.backplane.com/DFlyMisc/doexec.c $ cc -O2 -o shared-doexec doexec.c $ ./shared-doexec $(nproc) Note this particular test makes sure binaries are separate, but the loader is shared.

mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()
For now we only get the (small) zeropage mapped to user space in four cases (excluding VM_PFNMAP mappings, such as /proc/vmstat): (1) Read page faults in anonymous VMAs (MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANON): do_anonymous_page() will not refcount it and map it pte_mkspecial() (2) UFFDIO_ZEROPAGE on anonymous VMA or COW mapping of shmem (MAP_PRIVATE). mfill_atomic_pte_zeropage() will not refcount it and map it pte_mkspecial(). (3) KSM in mergeable VMA (anonymous VMA or COW mapping). cmp_and_merge_page() will not refcount it and map it pte_mkspecial(). (4) FSDAX as an optimization for holes. vmf_insert_mixed()->__vm_insert_mixed() might end up calling insert_page() without CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL, refcounting the zeropage and not mapping it pte_mkspecial(). With CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL, we'll call insert_pfn() where we will not refcount it and map it pte_mkspecial(). In case (4), we might not have VM_MIXEDMAP set: while fs/fuse/dax.c sets VM_MIXEDMAP, we removed it for ext4 fsdax in commit |

mm/memory: move page_count() check into validate_page_before_insert()
Patch series "mm/memory: cleanly support zeropage in vm_insert_page*(), vm_map_pages*() and vmf_insert_mixed()", v2. There is interest in mapping zeropages via vm_insert_pages() [1] into MAP_SHARED mappings. For now, we only get zeropages in MAP_SHARED mappings via vmf_insert_mixed() from FSDAX code, and I think it's a bit shaky in some cases because we refcount the zeropage when mapping it but not necessarily always when unmapping it ... and we should actually never refcount it. It's all a bit tricky, especially how zeropages in MAP_SHARED mappings interact with GUP (FOLL_LONGTERM), mprotect(), write-faults and s390x forbidding the shared zeropage (rewrite [2] s now upstream). This series tries to take the careful approach of only allowing the zeropage where it is likely safe to use (which should cover the existing FSDAX use case and [1]), preventing that it could accidentally get mapped writable during a write fault, mprotect() etc, and preventing issues with FOLL_LONGTERM in the future with other users. Tested with a patch from Vincent that uses the zeropage in context of [1].

mm: fix possible OOB in numa_rebuild_large_mapping()
The large folio is mapped with folio size(not greater PMD_SIZE) aligned
virtual address during the pagefault, ie, 'addr = ALIGN_DOWN(vmf->address,
nr_pages * PAGE_SIZE)' in do_anonymous_page(). But after the mremap(),
the virtual address only requires PAGE_SIZE alignment. Also pte is moved
to new in move_page_tables(), then traversal of the new pte in the
numa_rebuild_large_mapping() could hit the following issue,

Revert "mm: init_mlocked_on_free_v3"
There was insufficient review and no agreement that this is the right
approach.
There are serious flaws with the implementation that make processes using
mlock() not even work with simple fork() [1] and we get reliable crashes
when rebooting.
Further, simply because we might be unmapping a single PTE of a large
mlocked folio, we shouldn't zero out the whole folio.
... especially because the code can also *corrupt* urelated memory because
kernel_init_pages(page, folio_nr_pages(folio));
Could end up writing outside of the actual folio if we work with a tail
page.
Let's revert it. Once there is agreement that this is the right approach,
the issues were fixed and there was reasonable review and proper testing,
we can consider it again.

mm: simplify and improve print_vma_addr() output
Use '%pD' to print out the filename, and print out the actual offset within the file too, rather than just what the virtual address of the mapping is (which doesn't tell you anything about any mapping offsets). Also, use the exact vma_lookup() instead of find_vma() - the latter looks up any vma _after_ the address, which is of questionable value (yes, maybe you fell off the beginning, but you'd be more likely to fall off the end).

If the mmap_lock can be taken for read, we can call __anon_vma_prepare() while holding it, saving ourselves a trip back through the fault handler.

mm: delay the check for a NULL anon_vma
Instead of checking the anon_vma early in the fault path where all page faults pay the cost, delay it until we know we're going to need the anon_vma to be filled in. This will have a slight negative effect on the first fault in an anonymous VMA, but it shortens every other page fault. It also makes the code slightly cleaner as the anon and file backed fault handling look more similar. The Intel kernel test bot reports a 3x improvement in vm-scalability throughput with the small-allocs-mt test. This is clearly an extreme situation that won't be replicated in any real-world workload, but it's a nice win. https://lore.kernel.org/all/202404261055.c5e24608-oliver.sang@intel.com/ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240426144506.1290619-3-willy@infradead.org Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox (Oracle) <willy@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Suren Baghdasaryan <surenb@google.com> Cc: David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com> Cc: Jann Horn <jannh@google.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> |

mm: memory: check userfaultfd_wp() in vmf_orig_pte_uffd_wp()
Add userfaultfd_wp() check in vmf_orig_pte_uffd_wp() to avoid the unnecessary FAULT_FLAG_ORIG_PTE_VALID check/pte_marker_entry_uffd_wp() in most pagefault, note, the function vmf_orig_pte_uffd_wp() is not inlined in the two kernel versions, the difference is shown below, perf date, perf report -i perf.data.before | grep vmf 0.17% 0.13% lat_pagefault [kernel.kallsyms] [k] vmf_orig_pte_uffd_wp.part.0.isra.0 perf report -i perf.data.after | grep vmf lat_pagefault -W 5 -N 5 /tmp/XXX latency before after diff average(8 tests) 0.262675 0.2600375 -0.0026375 Although it's a small, but the uffd_wp is a new feature than previous kernel, when the vma is not registered with UFFD_WP, let's avoid to execute the new logical, also adding __always_inline attribute to vmf_orig_pte_uffd_wp(), which make set_pte_range() only check VM_UFFD_WP flags without the function call. In addition, directly call the vmf_orig_pte_uffd_wp() in do_anonymous_page() and set_pte_range() to save an uffd_wp variable.

mm/memory: add any_dirty optional pointer to folio_pte_batch()
This commit adds the any_dirty pointer as an optional parameter to folio_pte_batch() function. By using both the any_young and any_dirty pointers, madvise_free can make smarter decisions about whether to clear the PTEs when marking large folios as lazyfree.

mm: move mm counter updating out of set_pte_range()
Patch series "mm: batch mm counter updating in filemap_map_pages()", v3. Let's batch mm counter updating to accelerate filemap_map_pages(). This patch (of 2): In order to support batch mm counter updating in filemap_map_pages(), move mm counter updating out of set_pte_range(), the folios are file from filemap, and distinguish folios by vmf->flags and vma->vm_flags from another caller finish_fault().

mm: add per-order mTHP anon_fault_alloc and anon_fault_fallback counters
Patch series "mm: add per-order mTHP alloc and swpout counters", v6. The patchset introduces a framework to facilitate mTHP counters, starting with the allocation and swap-out counters. Currently, only four new nodes are appended to the stats directory for each mTHP size. /sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/hugepages-<size>/stats anon_fault_alloc anon_fault_fallback anon_fault_fallback_charge anon_swpout anon_swpout_fallback These nodes are crucial for us to monitor the fragmentation levels of both the buddy system and the swap partitions. In the future, we may consider adding additional nodes for further insights. This patch (of 4): Profiling a system blindly with mTHP has become challenging due to the lack of visibility into its operations. Presenting the success rate of mTHP allocations appears to be pressing need. Recently, I've been experiencing significant difficulty debugging performance improvements and regressions without these figures. It's crucial for us to understand the true effectiveness of mTHP in real-world scenarios, especially in systems with fragmented memory. This patch establishes the framework for per-order mTHP counters. It begins by introducing the anon_fault_alloc and anon_fault_fallback counters. Additionally, to maintain consistency with thp_fault_fallback_charge in /proc/vmstat, this patch also tracks anon_fault_fallback_charge when mem_cgroup_charge fails for mTHP. Incorporating additional counters should now be straightforward as well.

mm/memory: use folio_mapcount() in zap_present_folio_ptes()
We want to limit the use of page_mapcount() to the places where it is
absolutely necessary. In zap_present_folio_ptes(), let's simply check the
folio mapcount(). If there is some issue, it will underflow at some point
either way when unmapping.
